Hi, I'm Dheera! I'm a software engineer. Most recently I worked at Ascend, an all-in-one payments solution purpose built for insurance.

Previously I interned at Squarespace as a Product Manager, Fidelity Investments as a Software Engineer & even did a short stint in VC.

I studied Computer Science & Cognitive Science at the University of Michigan 〽️. On campus, I helped build V1 Michigan – the premier community for ambitious student builders, where I wrote our newsletter & launched a product studio, in addition to other roles I played.

I also write about tech, startups, life lessons, & whatever else is on my mind. You can check out past posts here. You can also follow me on Curius, a collaborative bookmarking & highlighting tool for the internet, to see what I’ve been reading. For a list of books, check out my Goodreads.

I love meeting new people and jamming on new ideas, talking about the switch from PM -> SWE, or anything else. Reach out via Twitter DM's or shoot me a note at dheera.vuppala@gmail.com.
